SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
In our correspondence last week we
omitted mentioning Miss Boice's large
and well selected stock of millinery and
fancy goods which she is at present
selling off at a great sacrifice. Miss
Boice is always pleasant and accomo-
dating to her customers and we regret
to see her give up business and leave
our village. 1t is rumored she may
return again in the near future to take
up permanent residence.
Now comes Mr.. Highs shoe shop.
Mr.. High is an industrious, hardwork-
ing man and always at his post. If
your sole has received 40 impressions
of late, and is in a bad state, take it to
him. and if he succeeds in improving
its condition, SO that you can place it
firmly upon rock, without fear OF
trembling. do not wait for him to pass
around the hat but give him his change
direct.
Next door is the millinery store of
X. a. Carroll Il Co. Here you will find
hats and bonnets Of the latest styles
and other articles usually kept in such
q store. This is also dressmaking es-
Enlistment and trst-class work is done
in that line. Kitty is active and at.
tractive, and no wonder that milers fly
around her lamp.
William SCOTS bakery. is the next in
order. Nearly every one in town knows
by experimental knowledge that VIII
makes good bread, and as for making
pies and cake there is not a man in the
village that can excel him. He also
keeps restaurant, and can furnish
meals at all hours.
Mills x Son occupy the next build
ing This is almost exclusively a gro
Gerry store. y few dry goods are kept
Mr.. Mills has worked up good trade
in his line and informs us that his sales
amount to about nine thousand dollars
a year. Tinware, crOckery, glassware
and nearly all kinds of canned goods
may be found here.

Last fall while threshing at Henry
Clark's stack of hay belonging to
Ira Rowley caught fire by Il spark from
John Cannis' engine. Legal proceed
ings were commenced against John
.Camis for damages, Judge Wake ap-
peared for Ira Rowley and Mr.. Taylor,
Of Almoht. for John Cannis. Mr.. Tay-
Tor endeavored very ingeniOusiy to
make it appear that the employer is
responsible for his employees or agents
and as Henry Clark employed John
Cannis. the former and not the latter
should pay for the value Of the hay
burned, and eloquently demanded for
his client. no cause Of action. JUS
tice Shut could not see it in that light
and gave Judgment III favor Of Ira
Rowley. There will be lio appeal.

Fire Proof Elevator shafts.

II is quite possible to make elevator shafts
fire proof, says Building, which journal makes
the following suggestions: The interior of
these shafts should he lined with corrugated
iron, or, what Is better, with bright tin Sc
curely fastened TO the woodwork. The best
fire proof doors that made are constructed
of wood, upon which sheets of tin are placed
In such n manner that the flames cannot pene-
trate at any point IL has been repeatedly
demonstrated that doors OF this kind viii
resist heat much longer than the ordinary
iron doors or doors of any other material. III
elevator shafts were constructed Ia this way,
with the openings at the different landings 30
made as to close tightly. thereby Dramatically
sealing the shaft this would then become IA
great fue TO carry away the smoke and
flames generated Ina the building. IL at the
top of the shaft glass slsylight was placed, a
free exit for the flames would lie afforded, for
the heat would very soon break the glass and
make the opening complete.

spoonful OF baking powder sifted through it,
and a pinch Of salt. Beat two eggs sep
arately, stir In the yolks, then the mashed
peas and lastly the whites; bake ON griddIs

Until lately the gigantic telescope in the
Vienna observatory was the largest In the

ington refractor, In comparison with which
all other telescopes had seemed like dwarfs,
but it did not enjoy this reputation long, for
the construction OF the Vienna telescope
seemed to call forth "A universal competition
for the possession of the largest instrument,
and several observatories oriered telescopes
of dimensions equal TO or larger than the one

fIisnds-why-ftne masculine reader Will OBJ
serve this tremendous climax and trembiel-
why she didn't know why he should blame
her.
They turned and faced each other The
conditions for perfect misunderstanding
could not have been better arranged between
two people. Thatcher was a masculine ress-
soner, Carmen a feminine feeler-if / may be
parioned the expression Thatcher wanted
to get at certain facts and argue therefrom-
Carmen wanted To get at certain feelings and
then fit the facts to them.
But am MT blaming you, Miss Carmen
be said gravely. 1T ras stupid in me to con-
front you here with the property claimed by
your uncle AMI occupied by me, but it was u
mistake-noT he added hastily, 1T was not
a mistake. You knew it and didn't You
overlooked il before you came, and was too
glad to overlook it after you were here
-Of course,7 said Carmen p<ttishIy, Il am
the ono one to he blamed. Its like you men!
Mem She was just fifteen, and uttered this
awful resume of experience just as if it hadn't
been taught To her in her cradle.l
Feminine gener;llities always stagger a
man. Thatcher said nothing. Carmen be-
came more enraged-
ny yOu ~ 'siht IN
property, then." she asked triumphantly.
Il don know that it Is your uncle's prop
erty"
~You-dont-knowi Have you sen the
application with Governor Micheltorenas
Endorsement. Have you heard the wit
ncsse-s'" she said passionately-
signatures may be forged and witnesses
lie" said Thatcher quietly.
What is it you call forged"
Thatcher instantly recalled the fact that
the Spanish language held no synonym for
forgery The act was apparently AN mven-
ton of el Diablo Americana. So he said,
with a slight smile in his kindly eye:
ANYBODY wicked enough and dcxterOus
enough can initiate another's handwriting
When this is used to benefit fraud call it
forgery l beg your pardon-Miss De Haro,
Miss Carmen-what is the matter.'
She had suddenly lapsed against tree,
lutte helpless nervelesS, and with staring
eyes fixed ON his. As yet an embryo woman,
inexperienced and ignorant, the sex's instinct
was potential; she had in plunge faith
omed all that his reason had been years crop
ing for.
Thatcher saw only that she was panied, that
| she was helpless; that was enough. 1T Is
possible that your uncle may have been de
| ceived, ;" he began; many honest men have
been fooled by clever but deceitful tricksters,
men and women
"Sstop! Madre de DiOsi Will you stop"
